I trust you'll make a better judge of materials than me. Include it in the cost, absolutely. I'll put down a deposit. Just... Well. It's meant to be a gift. Do you know who Viktor is?

Or if... you've got a preferred shop or two-- [ or three or four, he doesn't care, really, ] --I suppose we could make an outing of it? Could carry your bags, at least.
